There's a lot at stake Nov. 27 when Bowling Green (6-5 overall, 5-2 in the Mid-American Conference) hosts Toledo (5-6, 3-4).

With a win, the Falcons would not only down their arch-rival, they would be 7-5 and bowl-eligible to fill an at-large berth. It would also give first-year head coach Dave Clawson a winning season. The Falcons have won five of their last six games.

"Now we've taken it to Game 12 and it just sets up a very, very big football game for us. We always want to be in this position. We always want to be playing the last game of the year and have something to play for, whether it's a championship or a bowl game," Clawson said. "The Toledo game will always set itself up to be a big game for us.
